Home Buyers Survey in Southgate

HomeBuyer Report

Is it best to choose a Full Structural Survey, Building Survey or HomeBuyer Report on a property in Southgate and which would be the cheapest?

The Full Structural Survey has been renamed a Building Survey and is basically the same the same level of survey.

If the Southgate property is an apartment, or is a period property, or has been substantially modified, or is built of unusual materials (e.g. steel and glass), RICS advise a cheaper HomeBuyer Report.

If you are thinking about whether to do any significant alterations, you should you choose a Building Survey. The Building Survey is not as cheap, however it does provide you with a more detailed analysis of the Southgate property's general condition along with advice on defects and maintenance options .

RICS Homebuyer Report valuation

Do all Southgate surveys include a valuation and cost of rebuild estimate and how does the surveyor work it out?

A Homebuyer Report on a Southgate property will include a surveyor valuation and also a reinstatement cost included in the cost of the survey. To work out the valuation your chartered surveyor will refer to knowledge of Southgate and other factors about the property e.g. style of architecture. The surveyor will also consider construction methods and will use key assumptions like no contamination in or from ground. Surveyors don't value things like furnishings e.g. carpets.

Additional local area conjectures, such as any cost of repairs being shared amongst tenants or services, are made in addition to environmental concerns like nearby pubs, which are also considered as part of the valuation.

A Building Survey won't include a valuation as standard. A valuation can, however, be added for a small additional fee. Alternatively a Property Valuation Report (PVR) can be carried out.
